It was probably Nathan Kraxberger, riding SS in the Open class...
That pace on a SS is down right silly, very impressive. It took all my gears and more to get away.

Got there early, marveled at the whiteness of Lance's hat for a bit
Gimped, red-faced and grey-eyed with rage, out of the woods and into the loving arms of Lance, Eric, Pearl, Rob and Utah, who, in an extraordinarily above and beyond way field-hospital triaged the situation, stripped the rear mech off of Eric's bike, slapped it on mine, dialed it in and sent me on my merry way. (I was kind of hoping they'd just shoot the bike and give me a sandwich, but this was a very close second.)
My 3rd time and still one of my favorite races of the year. Competition was fierce in the co-ed cat this year. Unfortunately, our team name still holds true so we're stoked with the 5th place finish. I fought ridiculously hard to get Missy out for a 7th lap pulling out a 52 minute lap and coming in somewhere around 5:59...off she went cursing me but with a smile. Big up to the MTBNJ crew!!!
Great recaps!!! Keep them coming!
I rode that bridge at the end of the day when we were tearing down the course....not sure how pearl managed to crash himself into the lake. :hmmm:
.
Chris was the other guy who crashed off that bridge. There was a little kid there at the time watching who saw the whole thing and while laughing said "that was the funniest thing I ever saw".
Yep!
That's the one...the kid says to me "I wish you had a GoPro for that..." :hmmm:
Nice job Chris, you looked good when you came past me on that fire road. I think you were on lap 4 at that point. I was just finishing lap 3.
Chris was my partner in the men's open team. He did four laps I did three laps for third place. Growler, holla.
there are many chris's on this board and by chance three of us took third's. i think jeff was referring to me. i rode behind you for i believe was most of lap 2 in the beachwood bikes kit.
Glad it was a good time. Are results posted?
Rough start with GPS giving me wrong directions but mitch came threw with right address. First lap I crashed on the steepest decent.(right in front of Jimv wish he had a gopro)
That would've been a good one to have!! Actually dudes crashed in front of me all day long, I think I'm bad luck...
